Renewable fuel tank hire, without the upfront cost

As the UK’s largest independent fuel distributor, we understand that reliable, efficient storage is key to maximising fuel. That’s why businesses across construction, transport, and agriculture are already making the switch to on-site fuel tank hire.

Our fuel tanks, ranging from 5,000L to 65,000L, are specifically designed for storing HVO or diesel fuel, providing durability, safety, and efficiency. Whether you need a compact or high-capacity solution, we have you covered.

FUEL TANK LEASING

Tank hire offers a cost-effective solution, particularly for short-term projects like those in construction, eliminating upfront capital expenditure and the hassle of post-project tank storage. Hiring a 10k-litre HVO tank can save approximately £20,000 in the first year, which is a significant saving over purchasing if you’re not looking to own the asset.

While leasing isn’t universally suitable, it’s an excellent option for businesses aiming to minimise capital outlay in the short to medium term. This approach frees up valuable capital, allowing for strategic investments and site improvements.
